Respectfully, CAPT. H. 8. BACK oo calls forth in APT. BACK —Dear Sir: Be cause your letter, along with several others, shows an interest in this question of “How old ts the earth and when came man to North Americat” I will go into this a bit more. Despite what you consider ev! e, the truth ts that we have ’g existence on this Mt before the glacial epoch, the giactal epoch came mitiions ot years after the ear Nor, either on this continent nor elsewhere, has any evidence of hu * man life been found in any epoch, even half-way back to the carbon- iferous. Nor was there any implement that would cut a tree—a steel, or iron, or bronze implement—on the earth during the carboniferous age, nor during the entire meso zoic, nor during the pleistocene Steel, or tron. or copper, or bronze implements came in_ th post-glacial, and they perhaps may Feach byck to the fringe of the pleistocene—certainly no farther. As for any evidence of life on this continent back’ of the post gla- efal period, all acience has to say is this: “The existence of pre-glacial man in North America is yet to be demonstrated.” . oe be by OAL 1s supposed to vegetation covered encroaching oceans, or fresh water floods, then covered with sediment after it carbonizes. - foal, like limestone, like lgva, can be formed today. Finding «a coal stam does not mean a relic of the carboniferous age, any more than the burial of an Egyptian king in the mesozoic drift woul mean that Egyptians lived In the tertiary age. Fossil remains animals, of fish, of flora, usually indicate the truth, because fish and fowls, and flowers, do not dig graves for themselves. But the bones of & man in glacial drift rove nothing, in themselves, You might find a high-power Tifle bullet in the heart of a red. ‘wood tree 2,000 years old.
